A pretty, traditional lodge in a lovely rural setting with beautiful beaches nearby. The lodge has a pretty garden and even a pool that we only noticed the last morning. Host Dave was very nice and helpful, prompt in all communication and we felt welcome. Breakfast was very good and my gluten-free diet was noted, which I really appreciate as that isn’t nearly always clear. Our room was very spacious, had french doors and a view to a medow. Closeby Whangarei is a nice little town for a stroll, the interesting Hundertwasser gallery and even a visit to a waterfall.

The owner, Andy, was so welcoming and gave good information about the area. Breakfast the next morning with some made to order options was quite a treat. The property is set in a lovely and peaceful orchard - just a great respite at the end of a busy travel day. Close to both Tutukaka and Whaigarei, it was perfectly situated for exploring and for our dive trip the next day to the Poor Knights Islands.

The breakfast was the best we have had in all our stays so far. Being vegan I REALLY appreciated that Andy gave us non diary milk and coconut yogurt in the morning. Also Andy was so helpful about the locality, recommending where we could eat dinner for the evening etc and also about our itinerary the next day, without being intrusive. His place is so tranquil with bird song and a beautiful garden.

The room was so pleasant & was exactly the images I saw online. This place would be extra lovely in summer when you could enjoy the outdoors. Set on an estate the accommodation looks like a converted barn. I spent 2 nights in the lower apartment. Bed & pillows were comfy! I knew breakfast was included but didn't expect a continental + cooked ... loved the cooked breakfast of eggs & bacon. Def intend to stay here again if I'm in Whangarei again.

The property was very clean/tidy, lots of space to move around, the customer service was excellent, location was perfect for us as it wasn’t a noisey area but close enough go the town + shops and the breakfast was delicious and always on time.

It was a big spacious Room, nice Bed, Kitchen area and big bathroom. Everything was clean. There was a fridge and an outdoor dining area with a grill. It was very clean and everything was perfectly prepared (we booked 1 hour before we arrived and it was already late afternoon) - we got recommodations for vegetarian food nearby, the breakfast was absolutely fine and suitable for vegetarians (they even changed a few things for my husband with allergies); The Host was super sweet and very friendly

We were very well looked after in this lovely location. Really appreciated the peaceful location and the luxurious room. The bifold windows in the enormous bathroom were novel. Lovely having cotton sheets and bathrobes. The pool table was fun. Breakfast was delicious. Huge thank you!!

The location was a quiet rural area not far from the Whangarei City. The breakfast was fantastic and the bathroom was large with a walk in shower and was very clean. Would stay there again.
